Rolex GMT-Master II 40mm Batman Automatic Watch | Traveller's Dual-Timezone
Rolex GMT-Master II 40mm “Batman” | The Ultimate Traveller’s Watch
Designed for those who live across time zones, the Rolex GMT-Master II “Batman” is the professional traveller’s companion of choice — combining Rolex’s most sophisticated dual-timezone movement with the brand’s most refined bracelet. Wherever in the world you are, it tells you exactly where home is.
How the GMT Function Works
The GMT-Master II’s additional blue GMT hand completes one full rotation every 24 hours, tracking a second time zone simultaneously against the graduated 24-hour bezel. The black half (night) and blue half (day) of the Cerachrom bezel allow instant AM/PM reading of the second time zone — no mental arithmetic required. The local-time hour hand can be independently adjusted in one-hour increments without stopping the movement, making it the most practical dual-timezone watch ever made.
